A Ciestey Challange. The following challenge and acceptance of same, hag set Crown Point random on Its ear, and aroused an Interest In a possible future contest that has not been evinced sinoe the days of John W. Dyer and his gang of Invincible (?) court house baseball swatters (?). If talk and bluff and flashing of confederate money is any criterion that the same will be arranged and played, the line-up on each team might as well get out their liniment bottles, hire their doctors and possibly their undertakers for, according to those interested, "it's going to bo the merriest" baseball game ever played. Following is a notice of the challenge and its acceptance: Mr. Will Hand ley,' Manager of the Bum Business Men's Baseball club. Crown Point, Ind. In as much as you have seen fit to issue a challenge to the Court House Baseball club to play a game of ball, the above club accepts your challenge. We will play your bum outfit at 4 o'clock on any Saturday afternoon within the next two months (date to be agreed upon by respective managers of clubs.) Proceeds to be donated to the Crown Point Baseball club. Get busy and play ball, or do the ostrich act. Yours for fandom, GEORGE W. FISHER, Manager Court House Invinclbles.

Two strangers have been seen on Crown Point streets for the last day or two. and their identity has given

rise to much sDeculation among the

residents and citizens of the town.

They have frequented the haunts of two well-known citizens of this place who were last seen entering a barber shop on Main street. Later Advice

from our Times "Burdock Bores says that the two strangers In question are

no other than our own Billy Nicholson and Insurance Agent Bowlln of Michigan City. Burdock is right. The body of William Littlojohn, the colored man drowned at Cedar Lake, was shipped to Pascolet, S. C, last evening, a brother and sister and member of the K. of P. lodge, to which he belonged, accompanying the remains to the southern town where he will be buried Saturday. The family is one of considerable means in the south and belong to the best class of colored people in that state. Constantantlne Englert will start a new bakery- In Crown Point as soon as he can make the necessary arrangements. It is said he will cater espe

cially to private families and supply i

a trade that has been growing and compelling him to make the arrangements for an increase and enlargement of his present quarters. Ed Muzzall closed the deal this week, through Hayes and Daugherty whereby he becomes the owner of the Richard Drinski farm west of town. Mr. Muzzall formerly owned the land and sold It to Drinski when he left Crown Point some years ago. Ed has decided, however, that Crown Point and its vicinity is about the only place on earth and bought his past holdings acordingly. The tract is ninety-two acres. Mr. Muzzall takes possession Monday and will bring his family here to reside. The mason work on the new addition to the electric light plant is being rushed to completion and the new third boiler has already been installed. The business of the above company has had a remarkable increase since taking on the Lowell business and the pumping

contract for the city water makes an additional call for po-wer from the plant. They expect to take care of the last named business before Oct. 1. Lake county has been generously supplied with local showers, which have done a world of good to growing crops. The corn crop never looked better and if frost does not damage it, a recordbreaking yield Is assured. Several of Crown Point's prominent

saloonkeepers attended a meeting of the drink dispensers In Hammond last evening. It has been noised about that

the question of protecting their inter-

ests against the irresponsinie uu

vicious dealer was the principal object of the meeting, and that the body, is, as a whole heartily in accord with any movement that will obliterate the destructive element from their business

interests. Lake county's decent saloonkeepers are getting tired of paying the penalty of public opinion directed against themselves for violations that rightly belong at the door of the other class and it is said last night's meeting had this object in view. Samuel Linton of Englewood visited Crown Point relatives yesterday. Mrs. Peter Fagen delightfully enter, tained a party of lady friends at her home in East street yesterday. T in rorxirted that bass fishing at

This Is doneipartly to avoid the heat of mid-day. Mrs. Dales' house on Court' street is nearly ready for occupancy. Walter Merrill transacted jbusiness In Hammond yesterday.

Mrs. W. E. Combs is suffering from

a very serious case of blood poisoning,

IF YOU ABE FAT AND

HOI REAQ THIS

There is no necessity of fat people suffering as they do. Most fat people are so good-natured they do not care how they look or how they get along during the hot weather. As a matter of fact there is a natural fat reducer that in the past several years has been demonstrating that it will reduce fat and not tear down the body or leave big. flabby rolls of skin and wrinkles. This method is the famous Marmola

prescription, which is now prepared in tablet for mto meet the demands of fat people in the summer and to enable them at all times to take their fat reducer after eacli meal. One of these little tablets taken after a meal turns that meal into good food for the blood and stops all fat-producing elements from going into the system. Marmola Tablets has an army of men and women who testify to its success, and you would tire reading what they say of its triumphs. Marmola tablets not only stop predoucing fat in the body but they reduce flesh at the rate from 12 to 15 ounces a day. They are harmless and do nothing but assist nature to give to the body the nourishment it requires. They are sold at all drug stores, price 75 cents, or you may write The Marmola Company, Dept. 3 IS, De- ' troit, Mict

You could easily pay the $50.00 in installments of $5.00 or $10.00 a month perhaps, but the other fellow wants the full amount. Why not get the full amount from us, turn it over to the man who wants to sell, and then pay us at the rate of five or ten dollars a month? Isn"t this the sensible thing to do?
